Mchenja Camp

In an impressive riverside position in the quiet northern sector of South Luangwa National Park, this relatively comfortable and stylish small lodge offers hosting and guiding to a very high standard. Activities are centred on vehicle safari, night vehicle safari and walking safari. The camp has a deserved reputation for delivering intense animal sightings, notably of lions and leopards.

The main potential downsides are the relatively high prices, slight reservations concerning the camp design, the absence of hides and the extremely high temperatures in Oct/Nov.
